Where the Children Should
Sent.
Some time since a careful dlvlslo
of the city into school districts wa
made, and explicit instructions wer
given, so that parents might easil..
know where their children were ex
pected to attend school. The growtl
of population in several parts OF TIN
city during the year have now made I
revision of the districts necessary
The general plan of last year ha
been followed, and only minor changes
have been made.
In laying out the districts, the con
venience of patrons has been duly
considered, as well as the capacity o
buildings and the proper classification
of pupils. OF course this division
cannot be expected to be perfect
since there is great lack of school
facilities. After the children come
together and are all enrolled, al
needfull corrections will be made.
1t is hoped that all patrons of the
schools will preserve a copy of this
announcement, and carefully observe
all it's provisions.
In case of doubt the districts may
easily be traced out on any map ol
the city. The middle of the street is
always considered the dividing line
when the name of street is men.
toned.
In districts having buildings Of four
rooms or less, pupils of all grades can
not well be accommodated. The
older and larger pupils take the room
needed for the far more numerous
little ones. 1t is, therefore, much
better that the older and more ad-
vanced pupils should attend the
larger schools where there is more
room for them. This has been the
custom since these smaller schools
were established. AS the larger
buildings are centrally located, it is
thought that no great hardship can be
caused.
The following describes the various
districts:
As a means for better designation

numbered, beginning at the east side
